Chris is an honest man who values the customer! He honors his guarantees and is a skilled mechanic. I went in for a purge valve replacement and was really satisfied with the work! He personally and throughly explained to me what was going on with my car before fixing it! It has been about a month since this work and the car runs smoothly with no problems! 10/10 would recommend! Thank you!

Brought my 2006 Porsche 911 Carrera in for an oil change recently, and had some other work done about a year ago since theyre so close by my work. I had been going to their excellent competitor across town, but EA is so much more convenient for me. Im so happy I found yet another independent Porsche mechanic who I can trust with my baby. Excellent quality, super friendly. Highly recommended.

My 2011 Mini-Cooper S had an engine misfire at cold start and 4 active DTCs. Chris W. quoted a repair estimate less than the local BMW Mini dealer. After diagnostics...he called me to explain the result and recommended repair. He also offered an additional related service that was overdue, which I was unaware of. The work was performed on-time at a reasonable cost. So far, my car runs great and I would definitely recommend European Autoworks to my friends. I will definitely return for the next needed vehicle service.

Easily the most honest company Ive dealt with for cars in my life. Not only are they accommodating and friendly but are very open with their pricing, what they recommend, and even referring elsewhere if they believe youll get a better deal. They could have easily told me my car had a transmission issue when I took it the first time and sent me up a creek having to pay an exorbitant amount. Instead they really dug into it and found a much easier to repair issue. Trustworthy doesnt do them justice. These guys know how to keep customers. If you have a car brand that they service I would strongly encourage you to go there!Edit - I believe the guy whos helped me a few times is Chris. Even remembered my car and the exact issue from 8 months prior. Good memory

Chris and his team do a great job. I’ve gotten simple oil changes, and I got more detailed stuff done that I haven’t wanted to do myself, like 2 window regulator jobs done. If you have a bad experience with Chris and his, it’s probably because you don’t know how to communicate or you are simply an awful person to work with. Pretty straight forward if you ask me.

I am a long time owner of BMW vehicles. I ran into a strange issue with my 3 series where I was unable to open my trunk. This was most likely due to the new battery being installed (or programmed) incorrectly. As the battery is located in the trunk this sparked a myriad of issues. I took the vehicle to Carlsbad Exclusive, All German Auto, Laels and BMW of North County /Vista. I even had a master locksmith work on it. None of them were able to solve the issue. North County BMW kept the vehicle for over a week, charged me for diagnostics (as others did) and could not solve the issue. To add insult to injury Tim Lewis the Service manager at North County BMW, while nice to my face, would not return my calls and frankly hid from me. I took the vehicle to Chris at European Autoworks who accepted the challenge and did what others could not. It was not cheap, and I am not being paid for this testimonial, but it is important to note that the European Autoworks team was willing and able to perform were others were too incompetent to do so.

Excellent service. Very friendly from the moment I walked in. Professional staff, very knowledgeable and explained things in simple terms. Highly highly recommended.

Very helpful and professional service.

Great company

Great experience, definitely a repair shop you can trust. I will be back.

European Autoworks (Chris, Carol & Staff, and before them old George himself) have made sure all my Volvos over the years have been kept in tip/top running order. My first service was in Georges home garage so many years ago, I apologize, but Ive forgotten the year! Regardless, they have kept up all the maintenance on my Volvo XCV70 and now Im ready to pass the vehicle on to another family member. The vehicle checks out fully functional and no codes to report, ready for the COS to Petaluma. Thank you so much for the years of excellent service. M.S. Spruill

I was able to call in with my need, drop off car and get a quote and explanation of work that needed to be done quickly and professionally.

The best people in town

Was driving through Vista when our Audi starting making a funny noise. People at European Autoworks were extremely nice and expeditious on the repair. Prices were fair and before you know it, we were back on the road.

This is my second attempt to provide a review.It was a pleasure dealing with people at European Autoworks because of the professional manner they took when I arrived for my appointment. They started working on my car at the appointment start time and I appreciate the short time that it took them to complete the work on my car.

We have been going to European Autoworks for the past couple years now. The professional, friendly service is 2nd to none! The bid is spot on and their customer service is 1st class! Chris and his family have been in business for many many years and it shows as they appreciate their clients. Thank you for your commitment to customer service and doing a great job with our MB! We refer all our friends and family with European cars here! Oh, thank you for the free car washes too! Totally First Class!

On a whim, and noticing I was due for an oil change on our Mercedes SLK230, I stopped at European Autoworks for the first time. Brian quoted me a very decent price for the A service, so I bit. I scheduled my appointment, brought in my car, and after a half day, the vehicle was ready and even washed! I know that the dealership always had done this, but for more than double the price of what this company quoted. Not only was it done with my complete satisfaction, but the price was even LESS than quoted. I was very impressed with that. I had some additional issues that I wanted resolved on the Mercedes, and Brian worked out a very good offer. I brought her back in for all the other issues, and it was fixed beyond my expectations and at the negotiated price. I am very impressed with the workmanship, the quality of the parts, and now the way my car performs. I will definitely let others know where to go for their import car repairs, and I will definitely be back.

Honest, fair, accurate and professional. And the waiting area is clean. Whats not to like.

European Autoworks is amazing. I was having an issue from an accident and the collision repair as well as the dealer couldnt find the issue. I took my 2006 Volvo v50 to European Autoworks, Chris and his team worked magic on my car for a fraction of the dealers costs. He was able to work with my insurance adjuster as well as with me direct to get my car running great again. I am planning on bringing my wifes BMW as well as recommend European Autoworks to all my friends. I am so glad I found this repair facility for all my future automotive repairs.

I thought that this place was overpriced. I was quoted $1,610, but was able to get same repairs for around $1,000 elsewhere.

Chris is always there to greet you and get you checked in and out quickly. He gives an honest assessment of must do, should do and let it go! My car is ready when promised and always has been washed! Ill keep coming back with their track record!

I have an older Volvo and I was so happy when I found European Auto Works. The pricing is fair. They are always upfront with me about what repairs are truly needed vs nice to have.

Chris helped me out a few years back.I had to go out of town and it was late on a Friday and he still got my car taken care of even though they were busy.Thanks Chris!

Love this place! Have brought my beamer here for years since a friend told me about them. Really good work and good prices.

I have taken my 1986 Volvo 240 GL to George Woollet and his crew at European Autoworks since I moved to the North County 13 years ago and I have always received top notch service-no matter the automotive need- under his care. His honesty and integrity are backed by quality and superior attention to detail, going above and beyond the embodiment of trusted mechanic, George has made my family, part of his!

I cannot began to express how thankful I am to George and Carol. They went above and beyond to help me. I had an expensive repair that needed to be done (no getting around it) but they managed to save me money and do the repairs so I would not be without my car. Not many auto repair centers take pride in customer service anymore, but this shop takes it seriously.

I use this business now 😀

Great service on my Volvo S70
